Coital Alignment Technique
Richard Toscano
I have 2 questions for you wise folks:
1. While reading "Self" magazine in teh doctor's waiting room, I happened
upon an article about a sexual technique called the Coital Alignment Technique
(CAT). It's hard to describe, but it entials the man (in missionary
position) sort of "sliding up" the woman so that his pelvis is as far up her
body as possible and the base of the penis touches the clitoris. Instead of
pumping you just sort of rock back and forth. Apparently it works wonders.
Has anybody heard of/tried this? I haven't gotten a chance to try it yet and
I am curious about it.
2. Can anyone tell me what brands of condoms are cut a little bigger and
which are cut a little smaller? I usually use Lifestyles, and they are fine,
but I tried Shieks and they were painfully tight. Just to avoid any furthre
wasted boxes of condoms, I'd like to know which brands tend to be bigger (at
least Lifestyles-size, I guess).
Thanks!
Rich

The inventor of CAT did a study showing that CAT made a significant
improvement in coital orgasm, simultaneous orgasm, and "complete and
satisfying" orgasm, as well as various measures of sexual satisfaction.
A later study tried to replicate Eichel's claims and failed to replicate the
claims. In other words, they found that it doesn't work after all.

This technique works quite well. At least, my wife seems to enjoy
it.
The only thing to keep in mind is your erect penis can be *hard* and
you don't want to bruise her.
By the way, she'd kill me if she knew I was posting this....

The other day I was in need of some condoms and couldn't find any I like
(I prefer gold circle over and above all others I have tried not to
mention they are the safest) so I was in this sex shop and they had these
damn large size condoms and I decided to try them.
I am of average length, but I tend to be wider than most men I have met and
alot of the regular condoms can be a bit tight, I don't really notice it when
I wear them but they see to be a bitch to unroll. However I just have serious
doubts about any man who would buy these damn things. I mean really do you
have to compensate THAT much?
Anyways I bought a pack of the ones called MAXX (they also had MAGNUM but I
was pushing it as it was). They were the same price as all the others (too
high the only sex shop I could find was a boutique where they wear shirts
and ties and it is very nice) so I figured why not.
All in all, not bad, they don't seem as tight as most of the major brands and
I didn't have a problem with them breaking or tearing, or falling off.
I think I will stick with gold circle, they don't feel as tight as the sheik
and such and the certinly don't stifle me in any way. Plus I feel much safer
with them.

Maxx is my condom of choice, because it fits.
Yeah, I know, every time I buy them I feel like I'm bragging to the checkout
clerk, but what can you do?
Maxx is imported from Japan, where they make condoms smaller.
I've always thought that condoms should not be "one size fits all," but
rather they should be sized like olives: Large, Jumbo, and Super-Colossal.

This reminds me of a story I once heard (perported to be true, but I can't
say for sure.) I'll probably be told it doesn't belong in this newsgroup, but
what the hell.
Anyway, it goes like this: It seems some Soviet government agency, years ago,
as a propaganda ploy, ordered from a W. German firm (gee, now we're dating
the story, aren't we?) several thousand gross condoms. They requested that
they be made such that they would properly fit an organ 18 inches long and 6
inches in diameter. The company complied. And stamped on each and every
packet: "Medium"
Well, *I* thought it was funny. :)

AHA! So this is an urban legend. I read this was done by the U.S.
government in Vietnam to stir up penis envy in the Viet Cong guerilla
fighters. The theory allegedly was that this feeling of inadequacy would
force them to throw down their guns and surrender. But, do people of
other cultures really care about penis size?
